[QUOTE="Spells & Karma, post: 319754, member: 23"] [CENTER][B][SIZE=6]Deadpool[/SIZE][/B] (2016) [IMG width="433px"]https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.traileraddict.com%2Fcontent%2F20th-century-fox%2Fdeadpool-poster-8.jpg&f=1&nofb=1[/IMG] I knew little about this film other than the tone being offbeat and the film being R-rated. On these bases it could have gone either way. It fell down on the side of simply not being my thing. It raised a couple of weak smiles and small titters, but the humour was typically unsubtle American gross-out stuff that clubs one around the head and feels tedious rather than shocking. The fruity language was so overdone in the first ten or fifteen minutes it felt as though it was there simply to ensure the film got its adult rating and appeal to those who may be insecure about seeing a lower-rated film because it's not adult enough. There's also the fact that the irreverent tone makes it feel rather like a poor man's [I]Guardians Of The Galaxy[/I]. On the plus side, I found the second two-thirds of the film a little more watchable (I considered aborting my viewing early on as it was boring me). It was good to finally see a cinematic Colossus with a Russian accent. And Negasonic's costume feels as close as we've come to seeing the classic X-uniform brought to life. I'll probably watch the sequel in due course for completion, but I wouldn't feel particularly deprived if I didn't.[/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
